Garden In The Rain - Dyrenforth-Gibbons

[pdxdjazz]

Hi all
I would like to know how to not have the 1 beat changes bleed into one another. Bob’s post of the tune looks so neat and mine looks sloppy.

By using S and N in the editor (small/normal) chords can be made more readable in crowded measures.
Remember, each N or S applies to all subsequent chords in the chart. When you use S to make a couple of adjacent chords fit better, please use N on the next chord to reset the rest of the chart.

I moved the alt. chord to space 2 of the 1st ending. The player ignores it anyway and the musician knows what is intended.

This doesn't apply to your chart it's just FYI.

By inserting space(s) you can make a measure longer but it will affect the appearance of the chart. Some additional adjustments may be needed. (Like shortening a nearby measure(s) that has only one chord to line things up)

Also consider weather it's really necessary to have that extended chord quality on that chord(s)
Instead of X-7b5 you can use Xø.

Thanks. Now I can do charts that don't look like a dog's breakfast.....

A reharm of this tune. Slightly heavier on the chords, and in the original key of Eb.
